New standings for the 2024-2025 Extemp Central National Points Race are have been posted to reflect the results of the Florida Blue Key.  Check them out by clicking here or the “Natl Points Race” tab above.

There is a new leader in the National Points Race as Al Zaidi of Holy Trinity Episcopal Academy (FL) grabbed the top spot after a third place finish at Glenbrooks.

This weekend features the first triple header in National Points Race history.  The University of Texas-Austin’s Longhorn Classic, the Princeton Classic, and the George Mason University Patriot Games will close the first semester, offering points to extempers from different regions of the country.  The Longhorn Classic will be a third tier event, the Princeton Classic will be a fourth tier event, and the Patriot Games will be a fifth tier event.  The outcome of these tournaments has the potential to significantly shake up this year’s standings and will be the last chance for extempers to impress for bids to the 2025 Montgomery Bell Academy Extemp Round Robin.
